Hi Alex

I 've been reading the code over the weekend.
I have not found out if the flash routines work with virtual or physical addresses.
I think they use physical addresses, which makes the code a bit more complicated.
I want to implement a autodetect of the flash size, so that CL4 and SL4 can use
the same bootldr.
Maybe I find some time over Xmas.

Regards
Walter
